So, is this a good thing or a bad thing?

I'm not sure what is more surprising that he is at the green giant or that he's able to continue working on the Nouveau driver in an official capacity. Ben Skeggs has been involved with the Nouveau project for more than a decade.

I don't trust them, there has to be a catch.

The solution is simple.

Fork the code and maintain your own fork.

.. or ..

You could say thank you and enjoy the fact that a person is being paid to write and maintain open source software.

If it all goes to shit, you can still fork the code.
